Rose RS250 Streamer/Dac?


Hi--have any of you had any experience with the new Rose RS250 Streamer/Dac? Looks cool, but how does it sound?

Thegm, since you already have the rs250, could you describe how does the rosetube work?   Can you surf anything in rosetube and display it on the screen exactly like youtube?

I plan to connect an external monitor on the DAC if we could watch other things than listening music on rosetube...

Hi mbolek,

i am using mine as well for a week now and enjoy it.  Have you tried Tidal application in the rs250?   It looks like the tidal app in the rs250 does not recognize my existing playlists already stored in Tidal connect with my cell ?

 AddingTidal tunes into personnal playlist is not clear in the rs250.  I have to work on it and find a way..

Spotify connect is not and issue since it is not available in the rs250 list of application..

What i meant is the Spotify application is not built-in the rs250 while Tidal and Qobuz applications are already there in the RS250. However and  like you, i can stream music in the rs250 by using Spotify connect with my cell phone.  

  I must use the Rose connect application to stream music with Tidal.

I am going to try adding SATA SSD in the dac shortly..

Second firmware upgrade in 2 months,  Those engineers at Hifi rose are not sleeping! 😁

You could try by using a USB cable from your Vault to the RS250 if it works.

 In my case, I had 1TB of FLAC files stored in a external hard disk.  I bought a SATA disk and transfered  all my music files in the SATA disk.  I installed the sata disk into the rose dac and it gives me a clean setup, all included in the dac.

 

Nice work from rose engineers recently with the LDAC codec available when you use bluetooth. 

Now we can stream our daily discovery playlist lossless from Tidal connect with LDAC and bluetooth.
